ICH M13A Q&A 2.9: When is it appropriate to remove data from statistical analysis for BE assessment?

In a 2-way crossover design, if data from one period are excluded, the subject should not be included in the statistical analysis. In more complex study designs, removal of subject data from only one period may not result in the complete removal of the sub­ject from the statistical analysis.


I have 2 questions:

1. For 4*4 William's design, if the subject only completes one period, should it be excluded from BE evaluations? How many periods must each subject complete to include the data for BE evaluating?

2. For PK parameter analysis, can at least one period data to be included in PK parameter analysis?
